| Abstract | Minneapolis’s Open Data Approach to Curbside Management SMART grant project enabled the creation of a digital ecosystem for city-wide responsive and data-driven curb management. The city will integrate its asset management systems, a constantly updated digital inventory of curb space (i.e., a “digital twin”), and real-time data from curb users and the tools used to operate, manage, and monitor the city’s curbs. Project goals include facilitating meaningful engagement, collecting high-quality data, integrating the data, and creating an application programming interface (API). We heard from key stakeholders through focus groups and interviews to understand their curb-related challenges and needs. We gathered quantitative data through cameras, field observations, surveys, and existing datasets, and integrated the information with the city’s digital twin. We developed open-source curb, event, and metric APIs to communicate policies and real-time curb activity while ensuring privacy and providing curb information to public and private partners. |
